Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Amphenol ICC 65493-002 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector type: Ribbon Cable, DIP Header
• Position count: 14 positions
• Cable pitch: 0.050" (1.27mm)
• Board-side pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row configuration: 2 rows with 0.300" (7.62mm) spacing
• Mounting method: Through Hole
• Termination method: IDC
• Contact finish: Gold at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness
• Feed-through capability: Required
• Color: Blue
• Full position loading: All 14 positions

The CW Industries CWR-130-14-0001 meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters, establishing it as a direct functional equivalent for applications requiring 14-position ribbon cable DIP header connectors with IDC termination.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CW Industries CWR-130-14-0001 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete Amphenol ICC 65493-002. Both connectors share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including position count, pitch configurations, mounting method, and contact finish specifications.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and regulatory compliance. The Amphenol ICC 65493-002 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, whereas the CW Industries CWR-130-14-0001 maintains active production status and achieves ROHS3 compliance. For new designs and ongoing system support where component availability is required, the CW Industries part is the appropriate selection.

Both parts carry identical REACH unaffected status and EAR99 export classification. Moisture sensitivity level remains constant at MSL 1 (Unlimited) for both connectors.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CW Industries CWR-130-14-0001 be used as a direct replacement for the Amphenol ICC 65493-002?

A: Yes. Both connectors meet identical specifications for connector type, position count, pitch configurations, row spacing, mounting method, cable termination, contact finish, and feed-through capability. The CW Industries part is the manufacturer-recommended equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the wire gauge specification difference?

A: The Amphenol ICC 65493-002 does not specify wire gauge in the provided data. The CW Industries CWR-130-14-0001 specifies 28-30 AWG for both stranded and solid wire configurations. This specification defines the acceptable cable conductor sizes for IDC termination and does not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility with the board-side connector interface.

Q: Why is RoHS compliance status different between these parts?

A: The Amphenol ICC 65493-002 is classified as obsolete and predates current RoHS3 requirements. The CW Industries CWR-130-14-0001 is an active production part manufactured to current ROHS3 compliance standards. For applications subject to RoHS regulations, the CW Industries part is required.

Q: Are there any differences in physical dimensions or mounting footprint?

A: No. Both connectors share identical board-side pitch (0.100"), row spacing (0.300"), and through-hole mounting configuration. PCB layout and mounting hole patterns are identical.

Q: What is the availability status of each part?

A: The Amphenol ICC 65493-002 is obsolete with 897 pieces listed as new original stock. The CW Industries CWR-130-14-0001 is active production with 681 pieces listed as new original stock. For long-term system support, the active production part is recommended.
